London (ANI): Fashion shoe designer thinks Barbie "has fat ankles", and so the expert has decided to redesign her with slimmer legs.
Although Barbie has often been criticized in the past for being too thin and setting a bad example before young girls, Louboutin insists the doll has 'cankles', or fat ankles. The Telegraph quoted a Louboutin spokeswoman as telling Metro: "They're completely wild and even come with mini Louboutin boxes for the shoes." She added: "He found her ankles were too fat."
The makeover is being given as a part of the doll's 50th anniversary celebrations. The super popular Barbie has often been the subject of controversy - its manufacturer Mattel has previously raised eyebrows for making her too top-heavy, while studies shown her to be too lean.
